Thanks for the responses. I'm essentially a zero 121 guy (min military PIC time). Any Compass folks able to chime in? Thanks again

I'd say the only place that Endeavor has Compass beat is pay, and that won't last forever. You will have seniority quickly at Compass. Lifers almost do not exist here.
However, those starting with 0 121 time will have a lot of junior pilots to them upgrading at Compass. Meaning their upgrade time will actually increase due to it.

I'm Compass, but Endeavor might actually be your best bet unless Compass raises all of our pay and gives us a real pathway to a major. Endeavor is done shrinking for now since it can staff and pays more reasonably.

Compass ain't ever gonna grow. Delta is going to start pulling your Ejets away real soon. Pinnacle tried new ventures and got erased. Compass will be next.

Compass is one of the cheapest carriers because of it's junior pilot group. Why would Delta give that up again? And just an FYI Compass IS growing right now at 2-3 planes per month through November.

My comment is me flipping the script on the absolute moronic imbecile 404, whose divinity dictates the end of other regionals.

SkyWest would be a good option for MSP as well as Compass. However, I have heard that Compass might be downsizing MSP.

At Compass we've been told that MSP is staffed properly at the moment. No more planned (at least publicly) shrinkage. LAX is seeing a few junior guys sucked up in to the SEA base but no displacements out of MSP. The majority of the Delta flows are coming out of MSP so there will be quite a bit of movement this summer and early fall. Then it will settle back down unless attrition picks up.

This is the type of person TalkTurkey is like.
